...That night, that we fought at dinner. We both realized we liked each other for a while, but neither of us wanted to admit it.

[ She doesn't sound as if she knows that much about relationships at all.. ]

We should have talked about it more before then, but you know how she is.

That doesn't really answer my question, but okay~.

[ she just laughs. ]

What were you expecting to hear then?

[ Nonon feels much better if the way she attacks the rest of her plate is any indication of that. ]

Nah, nevermind.

[ Nonon places her fork back done, her plate somehow completely cleaned of every drop of whipped cream. ]

So then go and get your boyfriend.

Maybe we can talk about it on Valentine's day.

That's romantic, isn't it?

I suppose there's no better time. I just hope that he's romantic enough to realize it himself.

Oh, and since I'm staying with him, you can visit us, you know?

Just in case you want to spend time with me or something.

You're staying with someone you're not even dating yet?

How's that working out?

He's my friend, above all else. So it's okay.

And it's not like we're in the same room when we sleep.

[ It's not like Nonon and Ryuko haven't slept in the same bed... despite not actually having had sex yet. So she can't say much. ]

So what does Ryuko think of this not-boyfriend of yours?

I dunno... they don't talk much, I think.

[ except they do when athena's not looking, apparently. ]

Does she even know you like him? Knowing her I'd imagine she'd storm over to his place and start growling at him about how better never break your heart or something.

[ It sounds like what Ryuko would do to her anyways. ]

N- No! You're like, the second... person to find out.

If she ever does that, though, I think Simon would cut her hands off.

[ She shrugs. ] They will just grow back.

[ Ryuko is practically immortal after all. ]

Well then I can say I'm glad that you trusted me enough to tell me. Here Ryuko thought you hated me. [ She's just teasing. Mostly. ]

If I hated you, I think you'd know right away.

[ Is she joking? Probably not. ]

Oh? Are there any people you hate here?

[ Somehow she's still amazed Athena doesn't hate Archer...... ]

It's difficult to hate a person...

And there's no one here that I do, I think. [ A beat. And she looks out the window. ] I hope they never get saved.

It's a lot easier than you think.

[ It's easy for her to hate Ragyo, Ryuko's mother. For all too many reasons.

That little comment makes her sit forward. ]

Huh? Who are you talking about?

[ Her voice is quiet when she responds: ]

Those who believe that the ends justify the means. Those who participated in the Dark Age of the Law...

[ Nonon stays silent. She knows that Ryuko would agree with Athena, but Nonon doesn't. Because Satsuki had asked Nonon and the others to do difficult things in order to further their plans. Hurting people all in the name of growing stronger so they could kill Ryuko's mother.

So she'll try to change the subject. ]

I guess that tour with CERES ended up being more interesting than I expected.

Tell me about it...

A fish tried to eat me, though. I don't ever want that to happen again.

A fish?! Just how big was it?

[ Nonon pulls back a little, trying to picture that. ]

A really giant one!

[ she moves her hands in a circular motion, but it doesn't even begin to describe how accurate the size is. ]

Like, a whale!

So then it was a whale and not a fish!

[ Why'd she say fish if she just meant whale?! ]
`
Where the hell did you find a whale?
